Welcome to Hesston Mennonite Church

WELCOME TO HMC

A warm welcome to Hesston Mennonite Church! Our prayer is that you will experience God's love and presence among us.

We see ourselves as a community of God's people not because we're better than others but because we believe God has blessed us to be a blessing to others. In turn, we worship God together in community, fellowship with one another, and seek to be a sample of God's kingdom here on earth.

In our lives, we are seeking and following the way of Christ. This isn't about dogmas and doctrines, it's about a faith lived in love, nonviolent peacemaking, and care for all people. We do this imperfectly but strive for God to make our efforts have an eternal impact on those around us and, in turn, ourselves.

And we desire to be among those experiencing and sharing the good news of healing and hope with everyone we meet. We are a people transformed by God's presence and we desire to share that good news. We might not always use words but choose to live out our faith through acts of kindness, generosity, and love toward all people.

We can't claim to have all the answers but we are committed to the journey of faith. We invite you to join us to experience that journey from wherever you are coming from. Come as you are, connect, and make yourself at home with us at Hesston Mennonite.

Our Vision Scriptures

In 2007, the Hesston Mennonite community discerned the following scriptures as reflecting the core values of who we are as followers of Christ.

I pray that everyone who meets you will catch your faith and learn from you how wonderful it is to live in Christ. Philemon 6

Jesus himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that, free from sins, we might live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24

…my soul is bereft of peace; I have forgotten what happiness is; But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope:

The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:17, 21-23

Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, . . . Colossians 3:13-15

Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

‘Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ Mark 12:29-31

Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. … you are precious in my sight, and honored, and I love you. Isaiah 43:1b, 4a

Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. Luke 11:9-10
